Run Away (Japanese: にげあし Run Away) is an ability introduced in Generation III. Fifteen Pokémon have this ability.

Effect

In battle

Run Away guarantees escape from a wild Pokémon unless a move such as Mean Look prevents escaping otherwise. Run Away also negates the effects of the abilities Shadow Tag and Arena Trap. When activated, the message "<name> escaped using Run Away." will appear.

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon and the sequel, a Pokémon with Run Away will become terrified and run from all Pokémon when its HP is down below 1/2. Leaders are unaffected.

Outside of battle

Run Away has no effect outside of battle.
